A six week course for men recovering from prostate cancer will be launched at the Peace Hospice's Starlight Centre.
The course will offer a forum for men to meet with others in a similar situation and discuss common issues with a prostate cancer nurse specialist, Tina Smith.
It will cover a series of topics including management of potential side effects of treatment, diet, exercise, body changes and intimacy.
Tina said: "I have supported more than 50 men with prostate cancer in the past six months and this new course has been launched as a way to bring men with similar symptoms together to share experiences and find out relevant information to help them manage their lives.
"The aim of the course is to improve men's health, independence and confidence, give them the support they need to get back in the driving seat and move on with their life."
The course runs from 2pm to 4pm for six weeks beginning on October 27. For more information contact Tina Smith on 07921 388795 or email tina.smith@stfrancis.org.uk.
